Forums - Gaming Discussion - PSP, or Wii?

reverie said:How do you know it's $75 to manufacture that? This is the Playstation CPU, right? Or what exactly is that chip? Anyway, technology from the '90s. Development costs have been recouped long ago. Probably less than $20 to manufacture.
Isupply said $25 at launch. I think he confused 7 with 2, as he did reference these reports before.

Why don't you do that instead of rolling on the floor with laughter all the time?

I'd rather have the PSP over the Wii!!1

Right. Twisting a well produced game vs a poorly done one, to prove the actual power of two systems, doesn't make you a fanboy.

Bull. You're just full of it. Syphon Filter had a competent team. Vengance didn't. That is why that looks worse.

It's a  fallacy that anything larger than 10% of games on a system push a system to its limits. SF pushed the PSP much further than FCV pushed the Wii.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Its not fun anymore to talk about wiis poor graphic. I choose ps2 over xbox because of the games. But its true that ps2 vs xbox is not as bad as wii vs ps3/360. The ps2 fought for a while in the graphic departement but the Wii got run over on the launch. Wii got poor graphic, PS3 is expensive and the 360 su***!.



 

ummm, does anyone even like the PSP??? i thought sony discontinued them. god they suck. do they even make games for it anymore? does the PSP have any games that arent port ps2 games? the psp has such a great power and graphics, why is it LITERALLY being outsold 2-1 by the DS, which uses cartridges? good question. maybe because:

(see sig)



A delayed game is good someday, a bad game is bad forever.

Apparently 21 million people so far like the PSP .And while the DS has no games and ports of Super Nintendo games the PSP has the likes of Ratchet & Clank SIze Matters ,Sid Meier Pirates !,Burnout Dominator ,Monster Hunter Portable 2 ,MLB 2K7 ,Puzzle Quest  in its best version ,Afterburner,Socom FTB 2 ,Virtua Tennis 3 ,Prince of Persia Rival Swords  ,etc etc .And that just in the last two months ,I would like to any DS supporter to bring me a comparable list of DS games released since january .

 THe PSP has a lot of games that arent ports of PS2 games ;Lemmings ,Syphon Filter Dark Mirror ,Daxter ,Ratchet & Clank Size Matters ,Lumines ,Gunpey ,Every Extend Extra ,Loco Roco ,Puzzle Quest ,Tales of the World Radiant Mythology ,Valhalla Knights ,Field Commander .....Plus the ability to play movies ,hear music ,surf the web ,connect to PS3 ,thge astounding homebrew ,the PS1 emulator (imagine FFVII in the PSP ...it plays great ) ...You just doesnt know a single thing about the PSP .

yea, 40 million people so far for the STILL SOLD OUT DS. you say the DS has no games except super nintendo ports? wrong. they have many many many many games that all not only not ports from anything, but many that are completly original. star fox is a great game that has original gameplay that no other star fox game has. (gameplay that is 100% touch screen oriented) new super mario bros is a sequeal and very fun. metroid prime is a sequel and also very very good. FF III, a lost FF game that is out for the wii that did really well, and i own it and its really fun with real nice graphics. many originals like that Dancing game for the DS that aparently did pretty good. the brain age games (which did very good).

and lets not forget about pokemon comming out soon. thats a killer appt rigth there. dont even pick on it saying its for little kids. i cant wait for it, and im not a little kid. my brother and his college buddies are all counting down the days. its a really good game no matter what your age. its also the fastest selling game in japan.

for a second there i thought that was a joke. who would buy a movie for the PSP? a 30 dollar movie only compadible for a 3 inch screen that will someday be outdated by the next psp (if sony bothers). if i recall correctly im not the only one who thinks that, because immediatly after releasing PSP movies they discontinued all future movies. no one bought them. so you can watch the 5 movies that actually came out for the PSP. you can also get online with the DS. check EB, there is something you can buy for it now and it actually works rather well. although i dont know why youd want to. thats why i have a computer, for being online. a console for dumb fun-simple- complex gaming, and a handheld for dumb fun and simple gaming. guess what, thats why the wii and DS are selling so good, because they follow the roots of gaming for console and handhelds.
